The term “Himalayan” salt has had millions of dollars used to market the term for salt lamps that have become popular. Statistically, maybe half the salt you see that is called “Himalayan” is probably from China – but that doesn’t ring as exotic, right? Pink salt, made with various levels of zinc oxide, is not as cool when marketed as “pink,” or “impure” so using a general term such as Himalayan covers this dilemma – and there is a lot of salt over there!
What is the difference between pink or white salts?
It is beauty and benefits combined. They both have the same naturally occurring minerals – which means they produce the good negative ions that nuetralize bad positive ions. Different levels of minerals create the uniqueness of each stone. For example, the more iron oxide found in the salt, the darker the color. White salt is at a premium because it is the rarest. You can put together combinations of colors for a unique look.
